FADE IN:

INT. ABANDONED WAREHOUSE - DAY
                                                            
Dark
Damp
one light in the center of the warehouse shines
Boarded windows
Two men are bound to chairs
LEONARDO DIVALDI, mid 40's slicked back hair, in excellent
shape wearing an expensive suite, over looks them polishing
his .45
                                                            
                       LEO
I'm only going to ask this one
last time...Where is the package
you were supposed to deliver to my
employer?
                                                            
SEBASTIAN DANIELS, 24 6',blonde hair, green eyes,
Intelligent and good physique.
Lifts head up, perspiration noticeable.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
We told you, when we walked
through the door we were jumped by
four other men. They dropped us to
the floor, took the bag, and left.
                                                            
NATHAN FRIAR, 23 5'9", dark hair, brown eyes, hoodlum.
scared and desperate
                                                            
                       NATE
Please Leo, you have to believe
us. The situation was completely
out of our hands...
                                                            
                       LEO
      (Interupting Nate)
Out of you hands? What the fuck do
you think that shiny piece of
metal in your glove box is for? To
look pretty? No! You are playing a
dangerous game son, with some very
dangerous people. I suggest next
time you have that piece locked,
loaded, and ready to kill if need
be!
                                                            
Leo rises
BAM
SCREECH-the chair slides

2.

Looks to a darkened corner of the room, nods
Two men sit up, pull guns from their holsters, and walk over
Leo and his troops point the gun at Nate and Sebastian.
                                                            
                       NATE
Whoa Leo!? What the fuck is this
about? I swear it won't happen
again we'll get the shit back,
just tell me what you want me to
do.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Come on Leo. Listen to him, we can
get it back. As soon as we find
out who jacked us we will get your
bag for you and all will be
square, how's that sound?
                                                            
Leo puts his silk cloth in his pocket.
Looks at his gun
Cocks the hammer
                                                            
                       LEO
You both listen to me. There are
things in this world that don't
make any sense, and things that we
shouldn't even try to understand,
but one thing is for certain. We
will all leave this world at one
point or another, and the only
thing that we should be thinking
about is ourselves. When we are
standing before our creator we
will be judged not only on our
admiral deeds, but our iniquitous
deeds as well. So here is the
grand finale, which of these two
do you have the most of?
                                                            
BAM
BAM
BAM
Footsteps.
SLAM a door shuts.
                                                            
 
INT. CLASSROOM - DAY
                                                            
A sign sits on the professors desk, "Final Exam Today, When

Sebastian sits in his desk
Head drops, his final sits in front of him completely filled
out.

Jennifer's focus is on her exam.
                                                            
DR. PACKARD, A short, thin man in his late 60's.
Steps in front of the class.
                                                            
                       DR. PACKARD
All right class, for those of you

pencils down, hand in your tests,

Sebastian and Jenny gather their belongings,
Make their way to the professors desk
Exams in hand
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
So how do you think you did?
                                                            
Exams drop to the desk
                                                            
                       JENNY
Not too bad, although that class
was one of my most difficult
classes this semester.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Tell me about it, but I knew once
I dropped that piece of paper on
Dr. Packard's desk it was all
done.
                                                            
                       JENNY
      (Chuckling)
True. So what are your plans for
this summer? Anything exciting?
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Not too much actually. I'll be
going home for the first time in
three years, I landed a pretty
good internship. What about you?
                                                            
                       JENNY
Oh that sounds exciting. I don't
have any plans as of right now,
but I'm thinking I'd like to go
somewhere...maybe Europe.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Go for it! Sounds like a good
time...Well i have to get going my

                       JENNY
      (blushing from the
       offer)
I would love that. I will be in
touch , have a safe flight home,
and hopefully I'll be talking to
you soon.

rumor that you were coming back
home for the summer.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
I can do you one better. I'm at
the airport terminal right now

an internship here for the summer

                       NATE (VO)

                       NATE (VO)
It sounds like you got yourself a
fucking date. I'll pick you up, I
assume you left that piece of shit
car of yours on the west coast?
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Ya I did, I was going to have you
pick me up anyways.
                                                            
                       NATE (VO)

SLAM, the door shuts
Sebastian jogs to Nate's car
He stops
Checks out the car as if it were a woman.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
You know last time I saw you, you
were driving around in an old Geo
Metro. What the hell is this, did
you steal it from someone for the
night?
                                                            
The driver side window rolls down
Nate pops out, sets his hands on the top of the car
He Smiles
                                                            
                       NATE
Ya well that was then, and this is
now! You like? She's my baby,
company gave it to me, I guess
they think I'm doing a pretty
fucking good job!
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
I didn't even know you had a job
you lazy fuck. Well, either way it

Nate Smiles, Turns to Sebastian.
                                                            

7.

                       NATE
Do you hear that? Thats fucking
music to my ears. I'm pretty sure
if I could fuck this car I would
marry it. She's almost better than
any girl. Now don't get me wrong
my friend I like my fair share of
pussy as much as the next guy, but
with this beauty she lets me push
her as fast and far as she'll go
with out any complaints...does it
get any better than that?
                                                            
SCREECH, the car pulls away
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
      (Laughing)
I guess not for you, but i will
admit she is a beauty. So, you
must be doing pretty good for
yourself than driving around in a
beast like this. What exactly is
it that you do?
                                                            
Nate pulls his eyes off Sebastian
Looks towards the road
                                                            
                       NATE
I work man. That's pretty much it.
Enough about my ass, what was it
that brought you back to the east?
What got you out here for the
summer?
                                                            
Sebastian looks away confused,
Shrugs his shoulders
Looks to Nate
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Well, I came home for an
internship over the summer. I'm
going to be working with some of
the best doctors on the east
coast. I was offered several
different internships, but I
figured it had been too long since
I was home. So i made the decision
to come back out here, you know
see old friends, family, and still
be accomplishing something all
summer.
                                                            

8.

                       NATE
Oh ya I forgot you wanted to play
the doctor roll in society. Well
good for you man, I'm happy that
you came home finally. Are you
hungry? I haven't ate shit today.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
I'm starving man, ate a bag of
peanuts on the plane and thats
about it. What should we get? Is
famous off tenth still there? I
have been craving a famous
sandwich since i left the city.
                                                            
                       NATE
Ya its still there. I'm cool with
that. Do they have some pretty
shitty deli's out west or what? No
famous'?
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
You wouldn't believe how bad some
of the deli's are out there. I'd
say the best place I ever ate at
out there was just a glorified
subway. You don't know how bad
I've been craving a sandwich from
Famous.
                                                            
                       NATE
That's a damn shame. Well my
friend your going to get that
sandwich, and no worries because
it's on the house.
                                                            
Sebastian looks shocked he has never known Nate to offer to
pay for anything in the 20 years he's known him.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Alright, that sounds good to me.

                       NATE
Hello there, I think I'm going to

cheese please.
                                                            
                       DELI CLERK
Alright, your total comes too...
                                                            
                       NATE
      (Interupting)
I'm sorry can I also get two
beers?
                                                            
                       DELI CLERK
Sure can, with the number 8,
number 5, and two beers your total
comes to $22.73.
                                                            
Nate pulls out a wad of cash
Hundreds lined by twenties, and tens.
Sebastian's eyes open, He's amazed
Nate hands the clerk the money, and gives a gracious tip
with a smile.
The two head to a table and wait for their food.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
That is quite the amount of cash
your carrying around there, isn't
it?
                                                            
                       NATE
Ya I prefer to carry cash. I don't

                       SEBASTIAN
Understandable, I hate having to
make payments on credit cards, its
such bull shit.
                                                            
Two plates are dropped in front of Nate and Sebastian.

The two men devour their sandwiches.

The beers seem to be the only thing the two men are taking
their time with.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Oh my god. Thanks man this is
probably the best sandwich I've
had in three years!
                                                            
                       NATE
Don't mention is man, it's good to
have you home. Now, quit talking
and eat up we have some shit to do

Nate and Sebastian gather their trash
Scoot the chairs back in, and head for the door
They exit.

A bag of Marijuana, and a lighter
He breaks the weed, and loads a bowl.
                                                            
                       NATE
Now don't give me that shit. I

sacred ritual from when we were
kids...thats fucked up man.

The ports? You work for the ports?
                                                            
                       NATE
No i don't work at the ports. I
just pick up some things from
there a few times a month. It's
all worked out between my employer
and the CEO to where i can just
drive in. Usually they have a
utility van for me, and i just
load up the van.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
That doesn't sound too bad, where
do we take the stuff after we pick
it up?

My boss has a little warehouse set
up in the city, all we have to do
is drop off the merch.

Look man, I'm not proud of what i
have to do, but this is my job.
These people pay me an gracious
amount of money to only work a few
times a week.

Look man i didn't have the
opportunity to go to school like
you did. I'm just a fuck up,
always have been. After i dropped
out these guys picked me up
working at fucking McDonalds. The
only reason they even gave me a
glance was because i wasn't afraid
to stand up to them at the time,
but that was then man. Now i just
do what I'm told and take the
paycheck.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Ya i can tell you are really good
at standing up to them, where the
hell was the courage when we had
guns to our heads?
                                                            
                       NATE
That was before i knew what these
people were capable of. I'm being
serious man if we don't get these
women delivered we're both dead.
It won't be nice, these guys will
make sure that we want to die
before they'll actually kill us. I
work for some fucked up people,
why do you think i still work for
them? They scare the shit out of
me!

Sebastian punches the dashboard

You are unbelievable! Don't you
know that if you don't get killed
by these guys you could go to
jail, and honestly man I've never
been but I'm pretty sure you'd get
killed there anyways. So what the
hell is your plan? These guys
aren't just going to let you out!
                                                            
                       NATE
All i need to do is work for these
guys a little longer. Just long
enough to get some money to get
out of the country and I'll just
spend the rest of my days across
the ocean somewhere. They'll never
need to find me if I'm out of the
country.

thats what you think will happen
than I'm just going to leave it at
that.

Don't worry, I'll work it out.
I've always been good at getting

Alright, so what now?

Now we head to a little parlor on
the outskirts of town. It looks
like an old printing building,
thats where my boss runs his
parlor.

I can't believe this, how long is
the drive?

We have about an hour until we get
there, and then we have to make
one more stop after that.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
I don't even want to know what
else we have to do, but i need you
to know that after tonight i don't
think we'll be talking to much for
a while.
                                                            
                       NATE
I figured you'd take it that way.
I know i fucked up man but after
we do these deliveries how about a
late beer for old times before we
go our separate ways?
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
I shouldn't this is probably just
another ploy to get me to help you
do some more messed up shit.
                                                            
                       NATE
Na man, i swear after the second
drop this is it.

Alright one beer, only for old
times. I don't even know the
person you are today.
                                                            
                       NATE
Thats fair.

guy. A promising young doctor who

giant crack running through the
middle. Same promising young man,
only there is a flaw breaking him
in half. That crack is tonight. He
isn't sure what to do. stuck in a
situation he has no control over,
this could ruin him forever. The
memories will always be there,
what he did to these women. The
future he presented to them, its
sad. Are you really going to let
this happen? Death is the only
certain way out of tonight if the
job is not done. I have to finish

The first time i looked over at
her my heart skipped a beat. She
was absolutely beautiful, and I
felt like i had picked the best
spot in the entire room to sit for
that class. I don't know sometimes
you just get lucky like that.

So it looks like we are going to
be partners for the semester. Are
you familiar with the material at
all?

I've took a couple quick glances
through the book, it doesn't look

difficult we should be able to do
really well.

That was the first time i ever met
her. Falling for her was to easy,
there was just something about
her. She didn't work too hard at
school, but she always pulled
through when i needed her too. She
is intelligent, but lazy at the
same time. She always keeps me on
my toes, and the only thing that i
can hope is that i can make it
through the night to see her
beauty again.

Foam lifts over the top of the beer

She drops the beers in front of the two men
                                                            
                       NATE
Why thank you Angie. Angie, thats
a really pretty name, it matches
you perfectly, but I'm sure you
hear that from everybody.
                                                            
                       ANGIE
Ah your sweet, actually i do get
hit on a lot here but its usually
from guys in the offices, you know
married men who think I'll love
them for their money.
                                                            
                       NATE
Oh wow that sounds horrible, but
I'm sure they give you some mad
tips.
                                                            
                       ANGIE
      (Giggles)
Why do you think i still work
here.
                                                            
Angie turns around grabs three glasses
Grabs the Jameson down
Pours out three shots
                                                            
                       ANGIE
I think I'll take one with you,
its not everyday i get to serve a
couple of attractive guys my age
                                                            
                       NATE
I don't think you'll hear any
complaints from me, you have any
Sebastian?

                       SEBASTIAN

                       SEBASTIAN
Whoo smooth every time.
                                                            
                       NATE
True, but i bet that if your
willing to take one more shot i
can get us something smoother than
you've ever had.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
What the hell man hit me with it,
but last one.
                                                            
                       NATE

Whooo you weren't kidding, someone
could get in trouble with that
stuff its so smooth.
                                                            
                       NATE
Well I'd hope so, you definitely
pay for what you get though.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
      (laughs)
Not tonight my friend i get
whatever you pay for.

The two men casually drink their beers
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
So how far away are we from the
warehouse that we need to go to?
                                                            
                       NATE
I'd say around fifteen minutes,
not bad at all.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
And what exactly are we going to
do there?
                                                            
                       NATE
Normally i just walk in, drop the
bag in this old desk and grab my
paycheck.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Your paycheck?
                                                            
                       NATE
Well ya there will be some money
for me in the desk where i drop
the bag, thats how it works
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
So there aren't even any people in
there?
                                                            
                       NATE
Not usually, after i drop the bag
off and take my money i just give
them a call. After the call i
assume they have someone pick it
up, and thats that.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
At least this time it won't be as
sketchy as the ports. That Oliver
guy was pretty crazy.
                                                            
                       NATE
Ya he's a crazy ass old dude, and
no it shouldn't be sketchy.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Well in that case, if we're still
drinking on your tab i think I'll
go for another draft.
                                                            

39.

                       NATE
Hey beautiful, can we get two more
drafts please?

                       NATE

                       ANGIE

                       NATE

You ain't kidding, I can't believe
i pulled that shit off with that
bartender Angie. I was just
fucking around at first trying to
get a laugh.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN

Alright so here's the deal. This
lone white boy drops by this

on the weekends, and he didn't
show up last night like usual so
we can assume his ass'll be here
tonight
                                                            
                       GANGSTER 2
We gonna take this fool out?
                                                            

44.

                       GANGSTER
Na, we ain't gonna smoke him. But
we are going to rob his ass. He
has a tricked out ride, and always
walks inside with a black duffel
bag, but walks out with nothing
more than a yellow envelope. From
my experience he's probably
dropping off drugs and collecting

Being robbed is part of the job,
thats why i have that gun. FUCK

early morning so they can get that

It was just a thought, it is what
a sane person would do you know,
just leave out the part about the
coke
                                                            
                       NATE
It's still not worth it, if the
gang didn't fuck us up for going
to the cops than Leo would
probably kill us.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
What do you mean?
                                                            
                       NATE
Look man if i ever go to the cops,
Leo and my boss will assume that i
am talking to cops about them.
They'll kill me right there if
they think i was snitching.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Man, i don't know how you get
yourself into this shit. So what
now?
                                                            
                       NATE
I don't know man. If we leave Leo
and his crew will assume that we
never showed, but if we stay we'd
have to wait for them and tell
them what happened.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
I thought you said Leo wouldn't
care?
                                                            
                       NATE
He won't thats why we're fucked
either way.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
If we run won't they show up at
our houses? They do have our IDs
remember

Dumb shit my address in the west
is the one on my ID. Not to
mention everything i would need to
skip town is at my folks. How the
hell am i going to explain that
I'm leaving the day before i got
here. Plus what about my fucking
job man?
                                                            
                       NATE
We can pull this off man, we'll
cool off by the time your job
starts. Think about it though,
what is more important to you your
job, or your life?
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
I can't believe this man, just
yesterday i was on the west coast,
going to school doing everything
that i am supposed to do to get
ahead in life, and now look at me!
I'm sitting in an abandoned
warehouse cleaning up my head from
getting jumped, and it's all your
fucking fault what makes you think
I'm going to listen to anything
you have to say?

Honestly, i couldn't tell you.
Just saw Nate drop, then i was

You two should call the cops, do
you remember what they looked like

We appreciate the advice, but it
would be no use. I have no idea
what they looked like, like
Sebastian said i just stepped out
and took the butt of a gun to my
dome
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Ya the cops wouldn't be able to
find these guys anyways. The only
thing that they may be able to
find is the car, i guess we could
report that

I'm sorry to laugh, but in these

Lets see when the next flight for
Vegas is, and if it's not anytime
soon than we can look for
somewhere else. Sound good?
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Ya i guess that works. Vegas would
cause a bit of a distraction
wouldn't it.
                                                            
                       NATE
It'll let me make up for last
night. We'll get some drinks, see
some shows, and of course there
will be a fair share of women for
our pickin
                                                            
Outside the Airport
A familiar car pulls up

TWO big men get out
SLAM
The car drives off
Circling the airport
Both men enter
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
It'll take a lot more than Vegas
to make up for last night Nate.
I've told you a million times
already and I'm going to tell you
again you really fucked me man.
                                                            
                       NATE
Ya i know man...SHIT!

Keep looking forward, those are
Leo's boys
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
What? I thought you said we'd be
good once we got to the airport!?
                                                            
                       NATE
I figured we would. I wasn't
expecting to be in lines for
twenty fuckin minutes.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
It's the fucking airport man,
there are always lines. What are
we going to do?
                                                            
The men circle the terminal
They check the lines
They head to the bathroom
                                                            
                       NATE
They're heading towards the
bathrooms. Are there any of those
e-checkout things?
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Ya but don't you have to buy your
ticket online for that?
                                                            
                       NATE
Shit, well there are computers in
the airport lets go use those.
I'll look up my credit card number
online and we'll order some
tickets. They'll be checking these
lines for a while.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Alright if your sure it'll work
                                                            
Nate and Sebastian duck out of line
head towards the computers
CLICK CLICK CLICK
Meanwhile the other two men exit the bathroom
Continue to search the lines
Nate searches for tickets
                                                            
                       NATE

75.

                       SEBASTIAN

the lines, hurry up man

                       NATE
Here we go, there is a direct
flight to Vegas that leaves in a
hour and a half. We will have to
wait, but it will be past security
and Leo's boys can't get past
without a ticket.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
What are you waiting for order em!

The printer spits out two agendas
SNAG
Nate grabs the paper violently
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Lets go, the e-checkins are on the
side they already searched so we
should be good
                                                            
Nate and Sebastian head to the machines
Types in their numbers
                                                            
                       NATE
Now what? I've never used one of
these before.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Look for the check-in button. Once
we do that our tickets will print
out
                                                            
Nate searches
BOOP
TICKETS Drop below the machine
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Check our bags.

                       NATE

BOOP BOOP
TWO tags print
Sebastian Puts the tags on the bags
Sets the bags aside
Rings the assistance bell
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Alright we're good, the checkers
should come take our bags
                                                            
                       NATE
Wow that was easy we should do
that more often.
                                                            
Sebastian and Nate head for security
Line is long again
They stand in line keeping their heads down
                                                            
                       NATE

                       GOON 1
I don't have to. It's Leo that
your going to want thinking your
telling the truth.
                                                            
                       GOON 2
Although, it looks like you two
were trying to skip town. That may
not help your case
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Fuck man
                                                            
                       GOON 1

                       LEO

                       NATE
We were walking out of the
warehouse when we got jumped. I'm
not really sure what happened
after that it's all kind of foggy.
                                                            
                       LEO
Well you had better think long and
hard. How do i know that the two
of you didn't just beat the shit
out of each other, and than take
my business?!
                                                            
                       NATE
Leo you know i would never do
anything to fuck with your
business. I'm not lying you saw
the fucking warehouse. Whose blood
do you think that is all over that
place?
                                                            
                       LEO
I'm getting pretty sick of you.
All you've done lately is fuck up,
and now you've lost the business a
lot of money.
                                                            
SNAP

The two men take a seat in the corner
they play cards under candle light.
                                                            
Dark
Damp
one light in the center of the warehouse shines
Boarded windows
Two men are bound to chairs
                                                            
                       LEO
I'm only going to ask this one
last time...Where is the package
you were supposed to deliver to my
employer?
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
We told you, when we walked
through the door we were jumped by
four other men. They dropped us to
the floor, took the bag, and left.
                                                            

81.

                       NATE
Please Leo, you have to believe
us. The situation was completely
out of our hands...
                                                            
                       LEO
Out of you hands? What the fuck do
you think that shiny piece of
metal in your glove box is for? To
look pretty? No! You are playing a
dangerous game son, with some very
dangerous people. I suggest next
time you have that piece locked,
loaded, and ready to kill if need
be!
                                                            
Leo rises
BAM
SCREECH-the chair slides
Looks to a darkened corner of the room, nods
Two men sit up, pull guns from their holsters, and walk over
Leo and his troops point the gun at Nate and Sebastian.
                                                            
                       NATE
Whoa Leo!? What the fuck is this
about? I swear it won't happen
again we'll get the shit back,
just tell me what you want me to
do.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Come on Leo. Listen to him, we can
get it back. As soon as we find
out who jacked us we will get your
bag for you and all will be
square, how's that sound?
                                                            
Leo puts his silk cloth in his pocket.
Looks at his gun
Cocks the hammer
                                                            
                       LEO
You both listen to me. There are
things in this world that don't
make any sense, and things that we
shouldn't even try to understand,
but one thing is for certain. We
will all leave this world at one
point or another, and the only
thing that we should be thinking
about is ourselves. When we are
standing before our creator we
will be judged not only on our
admiral deeds, but our iniquitous
            (MORE)

82.

                       LEO (cont'd)
deeds as well. So here is the
grand finale, which of these two
do you have the most of?
                                                            
BAM
BAM
BAM
Footsteps.
SLAM a door shuts.
                                                            
                                         CUT TO
                                                            
 
EXT. ABANDONED WAREHOUSE - DAY
                                                            
Three Hours Later
Ambulances surround the warehouse
Police vehicles
Uniformed officers
A man sits on a stretcher giving a statement
Bloodied and Beaten
                                                            
OFFICER STAGE, an older man mid 50's, white beard gray hair,
very polite and understanding
                                                            
                       OFFICER STAGE
Son, i know you've had a long
night but would you be willing to
make a statement against the men
who did this to your friend?
                                                            
Sebastian is still
Head down
Slowly lifts
A stretcher passes
BLACK BODY BAG
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN (VO)
So this is it. Do i tell the
police about Leo and the syndicate
and risk the same fate as Nate? I
hate to say it, but my answer is
no. Don't get me wrong but Nate
had it coming. I will miss him,
but I'll always remember him from
when we were kids. He was my best
friend, and times change...Thats
life
                                                            

83.

                       SEBASTIAN
I was blindfolded the whole time
officer, i don't think that i can
be of any help.
                                                            
                       OFFICER STAGE
Alright son, well we are going to
take you downtown to get a
statement, you didn't do anything
wrong we just need to know what
happened.
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN
Yes sir.
                                                            
Sebastian enters the car
Police escort him
Vroom
the car drives away
Sebastian staring out the window
                                                            
                       SEBASTIAN (VO)
Times change and so do people. The
sheer fact that i didn't tell the
police anything about what really
happened to Nate proves just that.
It's like Leo said we have to
weigh out our decisions in life.
We are only where we are because
we put ourselves there, and the
whole reason i went through what i
did tonight was because of one
iniquitous decision. That i will
know until the day i die, but
until then I am going to live life
to it's fullest and I'm going to
be the one who determines my
fate...no one else.
                                                            


FADE OUT.
